A constant stream of storms. That was yesterday at day's end. This morning, we have snow, albeit only flurries, but wave after wave of weather coming in from the west.
A constant stream of other storms, too. We learned night before last that for Indigenous folks here is that there will NO economy for us, none at least for the duration of the summer, and at this rate? Probably not all year. No tourism, no art markets, no ability to sell. Most of our clientele has moved to online patronage now, so we are hit less hard than most. But the three sales we've had so far this year? That might be all we get. We'll be fine for a while, having stocked up on food and supplies and firewood and so forth. But the bills still have to get paid, and honestly? If we don't start making some sales soon, I don't know how we survive the year.
Three sales are not going to keep us alive, and we still have taxes and other expenses to pay. Just to cover all of the outgo over recent weeks, I need to bring in about $5,000 fast; I've got to make sure we can get through the rest of the year. So please share all of our links, because while we're all in isolation? Income is already nothing, and we can survive the isolation, but not the inability to feed the maw of all the bills. The links are here:
Note: For now, please don't buy anything off the Amazon wishlist; to do so would be crossing a picket line, and some of their workers have struck this morning to fight for safer working conditions because their lives are being put at even greater risk during this pandemic. If you find one of the items elsewhere, wonderful, but for the duration of the strike, please don't buy anything off the list from there.
Other than that, please share everything. Thanks.
